Snowing heavily doon here in the capital

True. The other problem is to do with individual accountability. All yer looney lefty socialistas will tell ye that if things go wrong in society - the 'state' can fix it and the state is there to help. This isn't in fact the whole story - people need to take individual responsibility. Bloody blame culture - the only people you can blame is yourself...

 

...and DHL - cunts. How come UPS, Match Couriers and the Royal Mail can all get me deliveries but DHL say the weather is a problem since last freakin Wednesday. I go over to DHL at Altens to find oot. They tell me they aren't delivering today... WTF?!?!? On the drive over I saw UPS, TNT, Royal Mail and Pegasus couriers all out today. DHL = dickheads. They still say another 2 days to get me my parcel. Wankers.

 

 

Must be something really nice if it's got your knickers in a twist like that!

 

By the way I think Snow Chains are illegal in the UK.

Spotted a guy with them on his golf last saturday just off leith walk. No need for them that day at all. 

Faithless cancelled their concert tonight in Glasgow due to police advice.

 

However, Frankie Boyle's gig went ahead at the SECC and approx. 4,500 turned up, 4,500 didn't make it.

It is the SECC's understanding that the promoter and artist management will not be making refunds given that the show went ahead as planned.

He really is turning into a bit of a cunt.

I heard a few folk left such was the level of drivel he was spouting.

Dingin doon wi ssssssssshhhhhhhnnnnaaaaaaa in toon again! 

 

Maybe Frankie Boyle will cancel here tomorrow! 

 

But maybe my new iPhone still won't have arrived 

 

 

 

Chin up, mannie.

 

Long term forecast predicting -30c for next weekend 

Yeah, weather, we get it, there's snow in Edinburgh.

Not a thing between Fort W and Glasgow, worst bit was the 200yds of sheet ice like wet glass on the hill that's my driveway!

effectively yes! 50 yes of mine and 150 private slope to public road

Blizzard in the city centre at the moment.  Seemingly north of Aberdeen has been particularly badly hit this morning.

Fucking toonsers moaning about a few flakes of snow.

 

 

 

 

So, fit's my chances of being able to drive back "home" to up by Fort William from London tomorrow after my (almost certainly) fruitless appointment at the US embassy?

 

How bad is the snow on the M6/M74/A82 etc?

Glasgow area is just icey, nae sna to speak of really bu the NW highlands is to (potentially) get gubbed wi sna.

 

The US embassy? Fruitless? Remember MBT, Who Dares Wins . . . .

You should drive really fast so it's over quicker.

Been a hell of a blizzard in Aberdeen all evening so far.

Was snowing when I left Aberdeen yesterday. Not a flake to be seen in Edinburgh or Fife (although a lot from last week hadn't yet melted) and it was snowing when I got back to Aberdeen. Toon was grid lock.

 

When will people realise that revving the car to fuck when wheel spinning only makes things worse? Morons.

 

Had to walk to my Hilton home from the train station yesterday. Had icicles attached to me face by the time I got hame. It was superb.

Well I got back to Salen about 7pm, having left central London about 930am today....and nae sna till I got off the ferry at Ardgour!

 

Fit's all the fuss about?

Look at a fugging map of Scotland

so you made it to the isle of mull from englandshire whilst cunningly avoiding that notorious detour which forces you from the M74 onto the A90 to Aberdeen, then along the A96 to Inverness before drop kicking you down the A82.

 

Wish id thought to avoid that. Took me 12hrs to get from Lesmahagow to Partick on monday
